More than most of his generation he sought to follow the example of Christ’s teaching by employing all manner of illustrative material from common life, and with simplicity and charm he spoke words not easy to forget.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo hundred years after Thomas Watson’s death, William Jay of Bath said that he could go to any one of his books and ‘find it ever fresh, pointed and instructive.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Beatitudes\u003c\/em\u003e, first published in 1660, used to be one of the rarest of Watson’s works.
